Category: Student & Education

Reading time depends on both the material's length and your measured pace.

Enter page count, approximate words per page and a note allowance. Compare the estimate with your available study block.

## Inputs and controls

* Pages to read. Allowed range: 0 to 100000
* Average words per page (words/page). Allowed range: 1 to 5000
* Measured reading speed (words/minute). Allowed range: 1 to 2000
* Extra time for notes and rereading (%). Allowed range: 0 to 100
* Available reading time (minutes/day). Allowed range: 0.01 to 1440

## How to use

* Enter pages to read and average words per page.

* Enter measured reading speed, extra time for notes and rereading and available reading time.

* Select Calculate result. Read the returned values alongside the assumptions below before copying, exporting or acting on the result.


## Why use this tool

The density and pace inputs make a reading estimate more useful than a fixed minutes per page rule.


## Before relying on the result

Reading speed and note allowance are your inputs. This estimates time only and does not measure understanding.


## Tool limitations

Reading speed and note allowance are your inputs. This estimates time only and does not measure understanding.

## Questions

### Does this measure comprehension?

No. It estimates duration. Understanding and recall need separate checks.

### What should I check before using Reading Time Planner?

Check Pages to read, Average words per page, Measured reading speed and Extra time for notes and rereading. Use the exact units shown beside the controls and replace any example values with your own inputs.
